Game Thread #10: at Clippers [Updated with Free Throw Lesson Addendum]

San Antonio Spurs at Los Angeles Clippers, Nov 17, 2008 9:30 PM CST


We head to Staples on our first win streak of the season.  Can we make it 3? 

We are partying with Cheech and Chong in LA.  The Spurs are rolling.  So roll yourself one and head on in.

Officials:  Rush, Collins, Zielinski

Keys To The Game:  

Home Court Disadvantage - The Clippers are off to a 1-8 start, which is terrible. However, it's not even that good. They have played 7 home games and only 2 road games. One of those road games was the Lakers. So, they have played outside of the Staples Center only 1 time and still only have 1 win. Now granted, they have played the Lakers twice, Jazz twice, Rockets, and Mavs. Still, I'm thinking they aren't exactly protecting their home turf.

Baron Davis - I can't believe they signed him to that contract. Egads! Here's what they are getting. 15 points a game. 37% from the field. 26% from 3-pt. 26% sucks AND he still shoots 6 3's a game. Keeping jacking them up Baron. You are the man.

Tim vs Tim - The Clippers are starting Tim Thomas at PF. Timmy better eat his lunch. If Tim doesn't have 12 in the first quarter I will be pissed.

Some other reading:

You can find some Clippers content at Clips Nation.

Here's a taste:

One thing is certain. Fringe players throughout the NBA are, as we speak, checking the schedule and circling the dates against the Clippers. Because it's their best chance to score a career high, and probably go for 30. Starters too are interested in the LA date - it's a chance to take a day off, knowing full well that their backup - pretty much no matter who it is - can more than handle the job. The Lakers second team is very good and is going to beat plenty of teams this season, so the fact that Kobe Bryant has barely broken a sweat in two games against the Clippers isn't too surprising. Then it was Paul Millsap keeping Carlos Boozer on the bench for the final 14 minutes of the Utah game, scoring 15 straight fourth quarter points on his way to 24. The next game, Luis Scola and Carl Landry combined for 34 points and 16 rebounds. Wednesday night it was Beno Udrih, rescued from the waiver wire prior to last season, scoring a career high 30 points for the Kings playing without Kevin Martin. Udrih made 13 of 20 shots in that game. Not to be outdone, undrafted rookie free agent Anthony Morrow scored 37 points on 15 for 20 shooting in this game. It was the first time in his career he'd scored over 30. And the first time he'd scored over 20. And the first time he'd scored in double figures. When you include his 4 three pointers, Morrow's eFG% for the game was... wait for it... 85%.
So, I'm just saying, George Hill and Roger Mason and Anthony Tolliver are flat salivating at the prospect of coming into Staples Monday night.

Other:

While watching Tim clang his free throws last night, I realized I missed one subtle yet fundamental part of the lesson.  Tim starts his free throw with his legs bent and then extends from there.  I feel you have to use the downward motion -- bending of the knees -- as the trigger to start your free throw. 

Think about doing a bench press from the position where the bar is on your chest.  It is much more natural, and easier, to move the bar down before going up.  It creates rhythm.  Yeah, you aren't supposed to do it when you are lifting weights, but if the goal is to do something smoothly that's how you would do it.

Better yet, think about trying to swing a golf club by starting the club at the top of the swing and only going forward.  The backswing is what creates your rhythm.  Or watch a batter in a baseball game.  Whenever the pitch starts, he extends his arms back from his body.  They never just come forward from a stopped position.

Recap (include the Three Stars): I'm putting the AssHatter Rick2G on it.

Volunteering for a review!

This’d be my first review on here, but I’m gonna be at the game. Would be willing to write up a blurb on what transgressed. This is all assuming Los Angeles doesn’t burn down before tomorrow evening. I distinct possibility.

Do it. Even if we end up with two, having one be from a person attending the game viewing the transgressions in person would be cool. I like multiple recaps. I think it is interesting to read what different people see.

Some thoughts:

- WALLEYE Thomas? Man, that’s a sweet name. We need to get Mad Eye Thomas in there and have him guard Walleye. Two Thomases, two eyes, a wall and MADNESS. I can’t believe something that awesome could happen tonight!
- Clips Nation sounds bitter, and funny.
- 1:30 AM local time for me… … …maaan, that’s late. Don’t know how I’m going to make that.
- Baron needs more beard.
- Flying cheerleaders to come tonight.

…and even though i skipped out on the entire game thread last night, you can bet i read back thru it looking for the dunking cheerleaders pics………and that beno brick shirt was funny too. LD is like the (who was that famous sports illustrated photographer) of PtR.

also....

saw that the spurs signed blake ahern from the NBDL. not sure where this came from, but i can tell you that this guy is about as un-athletic as it gets. he is a guard version of matt bonner. i cant imagine that he would do anything more than park at the 3-point line and wait for a kick.

one thing about him though is that he is an accurate spot up shooter and he is the all time leader in free throw shooting in the history of division one college basketball.

desmon farmer gets waiver right as the team hits LA. is that a cruel irony since he played college ball at USC?

and on the cheech and chong thing. i was in LA a couple of months ago and rolled up to the rainbow bar and grill early one evening, only to find out that i had missed the beginning of a secret/unannounced show with cheech and chong at the roxy, next door, by about 30 minutes. had i been there 15 minutes earlier i could have still gotten inside. at least this is what the door man said.

not sure if anyone has ever been to the rainbow, but they share an access alley with the roxy theater and i was the only pesron on the rainbow patio/alley way that didnt walk in firing one up. fortunately, plenty of the locals were willing to share.

did see cheech and chong exit through that alley when their show was over. pretty cool.

No doubt

Baron Davis really misses not having been able to team up with Elton Brand (not to mention the run-and-gun style of the Warriors). And no doubt BD and coach Dunleavy will butt heads more than a few times over BD’s shot selection.

Holy cow! It’s a 4Him sighting. I assume you are still in Czechland? Can’t see you hitting many regular season game threads when they are all starting at 1:30 or 2:30 for you.

Still here

Today is actually a national holiday in the Czech Republic – the 19th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution.

I’d love to do a game re-cap, but it’s pretty difficult when you almost never see the games. However, I’ll try to chime in occasionally on a game thread, esp. if it’s a west coast game (so that I can catch the end of it over here) or holiday.

P.S. You’re doing a great job here.

by 4Him on Nov 17, 2008 9:38 AM CST up reply actions  

The Velvet Revolution, huh? That sounds like something that would happen in SiMA’s closet. I’m going to have to look that one up.

If you want a recap the Denver game on Dec. 4th. It’s a 9:30 Spurs time start on TNT. We don’t really have another late-start West coast game until January 29th.

Thanks.

I wouldn’t be able to get TNT over here, and the internet feeds are very much hit-and-miss (usually miss). So I don’t think that I’d be able to commit just yet.

The Velvet Revolution is interesting. I hadn’t heard it called that and only vaguely remember the events from ‘89. At the time, I wasn’t really aware of the significance (and probably didn’t care anyway).

Yay!!! I’ll be able to see the game on TV via FOXSP.

When was the last time you did a bench press? Mock playing sports on your Wii does make one an expert on said sports. If so, I have already won the Grand Slam in golf, tennis and am currently playing in the World Series.

Am I the only one who thinks we should/could be 5-4 right now if not for that egg laying in Milwaukee? Think about 5-4 without 2 of your best players. Not too shabby.

A 5-point loss to the Suns when we were up near the end and a 1-point loss to the Blazers.

We could almost be 7-2 and 6-3.

You guys probably didn’t hear this (since you have a different feed), but earlier Sean Elliott compared Bowen’s new role coming off the bench to… Manu Ginobili in the 2005 playoffs. I am not kidding.

Apparently, Bowen took that to heart and went with the lefty finger roll.

First Half

First half thoughts. Timmy is doing a great job rebounding which isn’t a huge suprise because apparently the Clips are even worse than we are in that area. Besides the last drive Curious George seems a little star struck or intimidated by Baron. He’s thinking about his moves instead of just reacting. Ahearn will be dropped faster than Farmar was-Blake has no D at all and isn’t sure with the ball. Mason after his hot start is only 1-6. We’ll need him to knock down his shots tonight. And last but not least Bruces +/- at a +9 and I think it’s directly to the fact that his Defense really slowed down Thorton.
